Quadraxial reinforcing mesh
Even at first glance, the newly developed Quadraxial EGQ 016 reinforcing mesh makes its technical advantages clear – the star-shaped, homogeneous force absorption capacity:
HORIZONTALLY, VERTICALLY and in BOTH DIAGONAL directions.
Applications for Quadraxial EGQ 016
- Plaster reinforcement in new buildings and renovations
- Coatings in wall and floor applications
- Exterior and interior areas
Crack prevention with Quadraxial EGQ 016 means
- Homogeneous force absorption through high-strength glass fibers at 0°, 90°, +45°, -45°
- High force absorption from the lower elongation range to elongation at break due to the stretched thread layers
- High alkali resistance thanks to high-quality coating formulation
Settlement, minor earthquakes and other influences often lead to diffuse cracks in the masonry, as bricks and joints have different compressive and tensile strengths.
The advantages of diagonal reinforcements are known from the reinforcement arrows, which are installed as an additional layer in the area of doors and windows.
